A technical method that will let information on the World Wide Web be rated like movies or video games is nearly done, developers said Wednesday, but questions remain about its use.
The technique was developed by the World Wide Web Consortium, a group of more than 90 companies and universities. A draft has been available on the Web for public comment since last month.
The consortium committee responsible for the technique may make some changes before declaring it available for use.
The effort began in August in response to congressional pressure to control offensive on-line material.
